	I removed most of the quotes because it was started to read like an interview. Yes it feels more dry, but that's what an encyclopedia is. Check out ]. Quotes should be used sparatically. You did a good job of starting the article, but it looked like you were essentially took your sources and pulled things direct. It's much better to summarize the quotes. Also, the overall tone of the article felt (and still does to a lesser extent) like it was praise. The tone should feel less biased.

	ST47's comments were neither uncivil or BITE-y. He was simply clerking, and properly indented an ineligible editor's vote. Remnoval of such comments could be considered vandalism. <small><sup>''S.''</sup></small><small><sub>''D.''</sub></small>'''D.J.'''] 21:06, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

	My apologies on the ] revert, friend. Please don't take offense. Obviously, I'm new to this. If I would have ''fully'' read the Wiki policy's article I would have understood what it meant. When I saw "links to avoid" I thought it didn't ''necessary'' mean these links should not be used, yet they should be used with caution (hence, avoid), because they could violate copyright or some other rights. I understand why ] links are links to be avoided (not used). I disagree with this, however, so I will try to bring it up on that policy's talk page. My question for you is, for a group whose website ''is'' their ] page (this is not uncommon, I know of many bands who do this) what do ''they'' do? If their ] page is an offical band site and it is ''their'' copyright, there is no foul in my eyes. What do you think? I say this because, in regards to the ] link you removed, that is the only official Dirty Barby website--they have no other offical sites.

	In the spirit of editing ] out of Misplaced Pages altogether... here are some other pages I found with links to ] accounts on them, have at it! :)

	There is much more where that came from. Perhaps we should start an anti-] Misplaced Pages campaign. Talk soon my friend. :) M. W. Eilers 03:56, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Caylee

Sorry- you're right, I missed the footnote in the middle because of the speculation at the end which I'm glad you removed. I know the reports came in, but think we should proceed with caution about reporting minute-by-minute breaking news. Plenty of time to add material when it's really verified. But I was wrong when I said it was unsourced. Thanks for catching that. I'll leave it in, as I don't feel that strongly about it, but let's please keep speculation out.Tvoz/talk 21:20, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Threshold (online game)

Hello, I'm writing because you were at one time a significant contributor to Threshold (online game). Some issues have come up regarding the article's contents, and I'm at an impasse with a possibly-COI affected editor. I would greatly appreciate your participation at Talk:Threshold (online game). —/Mendaliv//_Δ's/ 02:08, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Alright, then- thanks for disclosing that; the editor in question made at least 4 replies in which he only demanded my backing off because I had previously played the game. TBH, considering the info you'd introduced to that page, I had wondered what your connection was. Incidentally that very website might end up being a good source for corroborating some of the info in the article; it's still mirrored by the Internet Archive. At any rate, thanks for your reply! —/Mendaliv//_Δ's/ 17:02, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi.

Hi. Do not remove my comments from talk pages, as you did here and here. I believe you can be blocked for that. And try to be more civil when leaving comments on my talk page (that is, avoid this).

Back to discussing the content, can you please double check that reference you mentioned on the Dwight Lauderdale article? It gives me a 404 error. Also, the sentence saying that Lauderdale "had a passion to "get the story right"" can not be sourced by an interview where a co-worker says he "works hard to see that we get the story right". That just someones opinion, and not a fact.

Likewise, we should avoid press-release language like "After working in news since he was 17, he wanted to have choices and work at his own pace". This is unnecessarily praising.

Oh, and please watch out your attacks on edit summaries. --Damiens.rf 13:34, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

What, may I ask, were you thinking when you made these reverts? That's hardly trolling. He thinks something is OR. If you don't think so discuss it with him on the talk page. Your reversions were trolling. Misplaced Pages users are expected to behave reasonably, calmly, and courteously in their interactions with other users. Unseemly and disruptive conduct such as this is prohibited. Please see incivility--Patton 123 16:02, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

I came here to leave a similar message. Those edits are not trolling, and continuously calling another a user a troll in incivil, disruptive, and constitutes trolling itself. If you want to stick around you'll have to work together with other users. Discussion on the talk page is the way to resolve disputes, not edit wars and name-calling.

Sig help

Heya, I noticed your new sig, on ANI today... Another excellent one from ya :) However, you made a little typo when you linked your talkpage, you put down User talk:Koshvorlon when I'm sure you meant User talk:KoshVorlon. HTH. SQL 20:17, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Templates

Howdy, Kosh. I see you removed the template warning I issued you earlier today citing the essay of not to template the regulars. While this is your talk page and I respect your right to remove whatever you want I would like to point you to a counter essay, Misplaced Pages:Template the regulars. Cheers!
